About NEXTGen Detroit:

Our ideal artist has a handle on what’s new in the world of graphic design and the latest visual trends — someone who can make things that stop the Gez Z and millennial crowd in their tracks and make them say “yup, I want to look at that!” This is an exciting (and meaningful) opportunity to produce creative work for an organization that not only puts on really cool events, but also makes a tremendous impact in the community that it serves. We are constantly cranking out art for everything from young adult fundraisers at funky art galleries and whiskey distilleries to family programs at petting zoos and cider mills to networking events at some of the most exclusive spots in downtown Detroit. (Check us out at jewishdetroit.org/nextgen). We know that our events are up against everything and anything someone in our community could be doing, so we pride ourselves on creating head-turning graphics that really sell the events and programs we work so hard to put on and effectively communicate what people can expect when they attend one. In addition to bringing people together with our full calendar of happenings, we are a fundraising organization committed to improving the lives of Jewish community members here in Detroit and around the world. We raise and allocate millions of dollars every year to local and international agencies that touch countless people of all ages and backgrounds — and our marketing department and its roster of creatives are often the ones tasked with telling this side of our story in thoughtful and engaging ways.
